&#8220;empower federal workers to break down data silos, enhance mission effectiveness, and accelerate IT modernization initiatives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Discounts for Federal Agencies:<\/strong> Agencies under the OneGov program will receive discounts, starting at 20% off on compute services (up to 50% as usage increases) and a nearly 27% reduction on storage costs.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Security Certifications:<\/strong> Snowflake has secured high-security certifications for government use through AWS GovCloud and Microsoft Azure Government, enabling secure data processing in federal contexts.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>CEO\u2019s Statement:<\/strong> Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy highlighted that Snowflake&#8217;s multi-cloud platform is uniquely positioned to meet the federal government\u2019s needs in terms of cost efficiency, performance, tool design, and contracting simplicity.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Early Success:<\/strong> GSA Administrator Edward Forst described promising initial project outcomes and mentioned other AI tools from companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity are also accessible.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>OneGov Savings:<\/strong> OneGov has collectively saved the government $1.1 billion in its first year of operation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Future Plans:<\/strong> GSA is in the process of extending agreements, expanding access to services, and preparing for scalable AI infrastructure across federal agencies. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Snowflake agreement will remain in place until September 30, 2027.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GSA and Snowflake strike OneGov deal for AI, data cloud products
